Elephants Storming u Prison.


An attempt to storm q prison, under
taken by elephants, is something new.
and it is Russia that has furnished this
new sensation. A menagerie arrived at
the depot of Charkoff toward 10 at night
on the last day of October, and three
strong elephants, taking fright, ran olfin
the direction of the prison. The ele-
plants, running up the narrow road shut
Off from the surroundings by rails, found
themselves in front of the heavy iron
gates leading to the outer yard
of the prison. Their three heads
were sufficiently hard to unbolt the
locks, and the gates swung open. There
was another shortroad with railing on
either side, aud the ponderous trio
walked on until they stood before the
second gate closed against them. Again
they began pushing, and some guards
fred their guns at them. Although not
wounded, the elephants were more
frightened, and in their endeayors 10
get through the gate added their loud
trumpetiDgs OF excitement. At last their
keepers came up, and the animals turned
against them. 1t was after midnight
when the elephants were pacified and
led away to their proper quarters.
